Monaco striker Radamel Falcao believes it “doesn’t seem possible” that he can join Chelsea in the near future.

Radamel Falcao has quashed rumours of a move to Chelsea.

Falcao, despite only joining the French club last summer, has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League this January window.

But despite praising Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, the Colombia international admitted his focus was on achieving “important results” with the Ligue 1 club.

"Would I like to play with Mourinho? I’d never considered it," he told Sky Sport Italia. "As of today it doesn’t seem possible, as we are on two very different paths and I have a five-year contract with Monaco.

“But Mourinho is a coach with a fantastic career, the titles that he has won speak for him and nobody can deny his capabilities.

"He has a different style, people might not like him, but that makes him special and football enjoy his eccentricity.

"But there has been a lot of speculation around European clubs interested in me. I didn’t think too much about that, though. I try to concentrate on my objectives, training to achieve important results."

However, the 27-year-old did reveal a desire to someday play in Italy’s Serie A.

“One day I’d like to play in Serie A. Where? I can’t say,” he stated.

“I loved Roberto Baggio, while of the current Italy squad I like Andrea Pirlo. Giuseppe Rossi is very talented and Francesco Totti ought to be called up for international duty."
